Step into a rare, chain-free village retreat on the edge of West Somerset farmland. This two-bedroom semi-detached cottage has been a family home for over 40 years and offers a generous, level plot with broad countryside views and a meandering stream — ideal for gardeners, wildlife lovers or anyone seeking calm rural living close to the coast.
The house retains a wealth of period character: exposed beams, original bread oven and a working open fire create welcoming reception rooms. The kitchen overlooks the garden and adjoins a dining room, providing a practical flow for meals and everyday life. Upstairs has two comfortable double bedrooms and a single bathroom; some areas have restricted head height and a few rooms are compact, reflecting the property’s historic layout.
Outside, approximately 700m² of grounds offer a variety of trees, borders and secluded corners. The plot is a standout asset — level, large and private with open views across West Somerset farmland. Practical considerations include slow broadband, average mobile signal and the property’s age, so some updating or renovation may be required to modern standards. Council tax and local crime levels are favourable.
This home suits buyers seeking character and outside space rather than contemporary, open-plan living. It presents clear renovation potential and a rare opportunity to secure a freehold cottage in a peaceful village setting, minutes from Minehead and nearby beaches.
